I’d like to believe Death Race could be possible with it being a single pcb compared to multiple pcb game like Kee games Tank since that uses one digital pcb and one analog pcb which should make that slower, even though Death Race components probably also has some challenges too.

Exidy Death Race 1976

Death Race proms are documented at this time along with f205v ‘s. additional proms for bootleg clone of Death Race called Robot Hunting. I still wish another Death Race set of proms can be dumped and be compared to be certain the rom images are certain. The Death Race roms came from a pcb dumped in late 1990s which I still have suspicions imo. I trust f205v’s work with Robot Hunting pcb.

Good luck with that when able to work on that later.
